Modem Configuration Updates

The SSCF and SED configuration files stored in the ICM's built-in
modem contain all of the satellite parameters the TracPhone system
needs to find and track the mini-VSAT Broadband satellites. These
configuration files need to be updated whenever changes are made to
the satellite network. In most cases, the modem will download the
latest files automatically via the satellite link. When a download is in
progress, the TracPhone V7-IP web interface shows "Updating" under
Connection Status, and the ICM front panel display shows "Do not
power down - Updating" for 30 minutes.
However, if your system does not operate within the mini-VSAT
Broadband coverage area during the download period (several
weeks), your modem might miss the update. In such cases, the modem
needs to be updated manually (see
